Start
Using the brakes
Double command
Have the trimmer 2 (cm) open to improve the inflation, the start speed depends on brake
use.
Without using the brakes:
More stability because of the reflex profile, more speed.
With 10% brakes:
More sustention, less stability, less speed. “CG backs off a little”, profile more unstable
cause the use of the brakes are causing deformation of the canopy.
With 50% brakes:
Used in heavy turbulence for reducing speed, increasing the attack angle to avoid an
eventual collapse. Used during start to decrease speed and to start within reduced
space.
The Flexus 2 has an auxiliary command, this double command is used to make curves
more open or closed in all conditions of use, regardless of the position of the trimmer.
For more open bends, pull the bungs with your arm stretched
out.
For more closed bends, pull the bung close to the body.
